Connecting Devices to the DVI 3500HD Sender Unit

1.  If using the Virtual DDC mode, please go to page 13 to record the EDID 

before proceeding.

2.  Connect the DVI capable source device to the DVI input on the DVI 3500HD 

sender unit using the supplied DVI cable.

3.  Connect the USB host device to the USB B port on the sender unit using the 

supplied USB A to B cable.

4.  Connect an analog audio source to the 3.5mm stereo mini-jack port on the

on the sender unit using the supplied DB-9 serial communication cable.

6.  Optional - Connect a DVI capable display to the local DVI output on the 

sender unit.

NOTE: 

Display information (EDID) is used from the DVI capable display attached 

to the local DVI output. The display connected to the receiver must be capable 
of accepting the resolutions and timings in the local DVI display’s EDID. If a local 
display is not being used, the Virtual DDC mode (page 13) will be needed to 
record and supply EDID information to the source device.

7.  Optional - Connect a USB device, such as a keyboard and mouse, to the 

local USB inputs on the sender unit.

NOTE:

the front panel of the sender unit, is set to LOCAL. When the control switch is set 
to REMOTE, these USB ports will be inactive.

the DVI out port of the receiver unit.

2.  Connect up to 4 USB devices to the USB A ports on the receiver unit using 

user/device supplied USB A cables.
